Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Regulation of Starch Synthesis

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Genetic Engineering ((GEPM,volume 20))

Abstract

This chapter reviews starch synthesis in higher plants, with special reference to the steps that can be manipulated to advantage by genetic manipulation. Thus, the enzymology and biochemistry of the various enzymes in the plant, algal and cyanobacterial systems will also be described as these are the potential sites for manipulation of both starch quantity and quality. Regulation of starch synthesis at the enzymatic and cellular levels will also be discussed with emphasis on its relevance to genetic engineering.
